  %LEADERSHIP RESPONSE FREEDOM LIBERATE ADDICT LOVE 900403

     True leaders  do  not merely do what is expected   of
them according  to  some  conventional system  of  thought
and tradition.

     True   leaders    do   not  merely   react   to   the
manipulations  of addicts and codependents.

     True  leaders   do  not  merely  obey  the  laws  and
regulations of their day.

     True  leaders  have attitudes,   values  and   ideals
which empower them to transcend expectations, conventional
thoughts,   and  addictive patterns  of  behavior.    Each
community needs to be vitalized by true leaders.

     No  system  of  administration,   laws,    teachings,
technology,    etc.    can  substitute  for   transcendent
leadership.   All systems are rooted in the past so firmly
that they cannot transcend the past.

     To   become   true   leaders  we  must   change   our
patterns  of responses;  including responses to responses,
etc.    Our  responses must transcend the assumptions  and
attitudes embedded in that to which we are responding.  To
be  true leaders  we must respond in ways which  transcend
the  constraints  which  dominate  in  that  to  which  we
respond.

     True   leaders   elicit  trust  because   they   take
risks in creative ways which lead to renewal which  builds
on  the  past  without  being  stuck  in  the  past.    No
technology  offers  the essence of true  leadership.    No
system  of  laws  and regulations offers  the  essence  of
true   leadership.      Technological  systems   have   no
imagination or  compassion, and cannot be in Love  in  any
essential way.
